Introduction Because splenic metastasis from colorectal cancer is usually a result of metastasis from widely disseminated disease, cases with resectable isolated splenic metastasis are uncommon. Case presentation We report here a case of synchronous isolated splenic metastasis from cecal cancer that was treated with sequential laparoscopic splenectomy after short-term observation following laparoscopic ileocecal resection. Both postoperative courses were uneventful, allowing the patient to be discharged early. Two years have passed, without recurrence, since the second operation. Conclusions There are very few case reports on synchronous isolated splenic metastasis from colorectal cancer. Sequential laparoscopic resection might contribute to obtaining an uneventful postoperative course, especially in elderly patients such as ours.

Background: Colorectal cancer (CRC) with lung metastases has an unfavorable prognosis. However, nowadays, even advanced CRC can have a favorable outcome in certain cases. A complete response (CR) is a rare event in advanced CRC with lung metastases. Herein, we report 2 rare cases of advanced CRC attaining a CR. Case Presentation: Case 1 was a 58-year-old man who underwent laparoscopic ileocecal resection for cecum cancer with multiple metastases to the lungs in 2011. We performed treatment with mFOLFOX6 and bevacizumab chemotherapy in August 2011. After 11 courses, computed tomography (CT) revealed a CR to chemotherapy in February 2012. He has remained disease-free for 5 years and 3 months. Case 2 was a 70-year-old woman who underwent laparoscopic ileocecal resection for cecum cancer in August 2010. Recurrence of multiple metastases to both lungs was detected in November 2010. We started treatment with XELOX and bevacizumab chemotherapy in January 2011. In January 2011, CT after 14 courses revealed disappearance of the lung lesions, thereby indicating a CR. She has remained disease-free for 5 years and 4 months. Conclusion: We encountered 2 patients with CRC with lung metastases who were treated with chemotherapy leading to a CR. Cases resulting in such a desirable outcome are extremely rare.

Abstract Background: Isolated splenic metastasis emanating from colorectal cancer is an extremely rare finding, which usually indicates widely disseminated and multiple metastatic cancer. There have only been 39 cases of isolated splenic metastasis reported in the English literature to date. Case presentation: We report a case of synchronous and isolated multiple splenic metastases derived from rectal cancer. An 84-year-old woman, who presented with and an increased serum carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) level, was diagnosed with rectal cancer with splenic metastases by abdomen computed tomography (CT). The patient underwent a radical resection of rectal cancer and splenectomy, and the postoperative histopathology confirmed that the splenic lesions were derived from the adenocarcinoma of the rectum. After surgery, the patient recovered well and was recommended for further chemotherapy. Conclusion: Our findings enrich the database of this rare clinical entity and provide experience in the management of splenic metastasis. In addition to revealing a rare case, we also performed a literature review, including a brief discussion about the atypical isolated splenic metastasis from colorectal cancer (CRC).

347 Background: Recent reports demonstrate the feasibility of laparoscopic liver resection for patients with benign and malignant conditions. We hypothesized that patients who underwent laparoscopic resections for colorectal cancer (CRC) metastases of the left liver would have short-term outcomes similar to those who had open surgery. Methods: A retrospective review compared laparoscopic left liver resections for CRC metastases to open controls for the years 2005-2010. There were two anatomic left hepatectomies in each group, with lesser segmentectomies in the remainder. Demographic information, pathology, tumor characteristics, procedure related factors, complications, and mortality were assessed. Univariate analysis was performed with significance of p<0.05. Results: Nine patients had laparoscopic resection during the study period, with 1 case converted to open (11%). There were no differences in demographics, tumor factors, margins, or major complications (Table). The laparoscopy group had significantly lower intraoperative blood loss and shorter length of stay compared to the open group. There were no deaths in either group. Conclusions: In this select group of patients undergoing resection of the left hemi-liver for CRC metastases, short-term outcomes favored the laparoscopic approach. Long- term data regarding disease recurrence and survival are needed in this group of patients. These results indicate that surgeons should consider laparoscopic resection of the left liver whenever technically feasible in the setting of CRC metastases.

Abstract Background Echinococcus is a worldwide zoonosis, primarily causing liver lesions. Accidentally detected, these lesions enter the differential diagnosis of a tumor, including metastasis. This situation is especially challenging in patients with colorectal cancer, as both diseases affect mainly the liver. Case presentation We report two patients with a newly diagnosed colorectal cancer. Pre- and intraoperatively radiological imaging revealed hepatic lesions which were resected on suspicion of colorectal cancer metastasis. Histology showed granulomatous lesions with characteristic parasitic membrane consistent with an echinococcal cyst. The diagnosis was confirmed by specific polymerase chain reaction. Conclusions Focal hypoechoic liver lesion in patients with colorectal cancer should be primarily considered as a liver metastasis and resected whenever feasible. Other uncommon etiologies, including parasitic lesion as echinococcal cysts, should be taken in consideration, as this could lead to major changes of the management and prognosis of the affected patients.

Although oophorectomy for ovarian metastasis from colorectal cancer is encouraged to improve the prognosis, that is also performed to relieve the symptom such as abdominal distention. We report a surgical case of intestinal obstruction due to ovarian metastasis after ileocecal resection for cecal cancer diagnosed at 77 years old.
